Slickfinger Armor Quests (Rivervale Rogues)

This quest allows the young halfling rogue to learn the very basics of blacksmithing skill, while attaining some good starter armor. It is believed that the combines are no-fail, and minimal smithing increases have been seen from the creation of this armor. The results are lore (other than bracer), no drop, and are HFL/ROG only. Armor has a dark blue chain graphic when worn. Please note that while the bracers are not lore, the bracer materials often are, so make your first bracer before you get the parts for a second one
